11/28 for 103 yards and 5 sacks
You people are insane.
After game 1 many of us criticized the way Will looked. His defenders said "he had a high comp percentage and it's game 1, what more do you want?"
After we sucked game 2 is was "well Barbay clearly sucks and never let Will throw enough to get in a rhythm".
After game 3 where Will was asked to throw and went 11/28 and had 78 net yards of offense, now it's the OL and WRs fault.
And the whole time we keep hearing the narrative that Wright can't even hit a slant, which is both a lie and ironic since we've seen Will miss a slant and a screen so far.
Whatever the narrative has to be to defend Will, that's what y'all will go with. Zero intellectual honesty
Newsflash: if the OL can't pass protect and the WRs can't run correct routes, that's all the MORE reason to start the mobile QB. You people can't even hear your own arguments before you make them, it's just whatever comes to mind to defend Will is what you type

Will is entirely to blame. He is a captain on this team. If his accuracy issues are due to he and the WRs not being on the same page. Put in the work. BE A LEADER. He has regressed this year in the leadership department.
His head shake, helmet snap and slower than jog off of the field after a piss poor effort and anothrler 3 and out is getting OLD. Be a damn leader.

This whole Mike cannot hit the broadside of the barn thought is getting old. It?s not like he is uncle Rico back there. Have we ever thought about the talent he had at Vandy and he had what a 57% completion ratio, guess what Rogers is at 59% on the year. Come on we have yet to see him throw a legit pass at State. (That was a dump off at LSU my wife?s 89 year old grand mother. Could have made that throw.)

What is with you comparing NFL to college. It is a completely different game from scheme to talent. It?s apples and oranges, water and oil, makes as much sense as not putting corn out to attract deer.

You have to go down to team rated #84 in passing completion percentage, Auburn, to get down to 57.14%. This does not mean some of these teams are not winning. Bama is #96 at 55.41 to date. We are at 102, 54.35% with one of the completions being Wright's TD against the LSU subs to date according to College Football Team Completion Percentage site.

Looks like I posted this in the wrong thread. Guess that answers my question and it's what I thought. If that WR runs to space against a 0 blitz its a 70 yard TD. Will read it right WR screwed it up
The one that still bugs me is the curl will through to the field side of the WR. LSU gave a 0 look and if that WR runs a post, the pass hits him perfect and its a 70 yard footrace. Instead the WR ran a curl and will either had a bad through or threw to grass where the WR should've been if it was an option route. I'd love to know if it was an option route.

Bullshit.
Will, our super passer, looks like a scared junior high kid out there and you're worried about Mike Wright not being able to hit a receiver.
Anything for Saint Will.

Really ain't about the QB. It's about the blocking for whoever you put back there. Rogers is 76% against az and was 69% against SELA. LSU is very much so an outlier in the sample size we have.
But historically, Rogers is the more accurate passer.

vs pressure in 2022, Mike Wright was 12 of 47 for 140 yards. That's a 25.23% completion rate.

There is no such thing as an outlier on our schedule. It is who we are and who we play being in the SEC. It's not all his fault but he is 44 of 74, 60% in 3 games. If we look terrible Saturday night, give Wright some meaningful snaps in a couple of series to do more than hand off and then we will know,

What's Will vs pressure?

Whatever it is, make sure you take his sacks into account and the 75-95% chance he fumbles on those sacks.

I have read this entire thread, and this is the truth. MSU football sucks, at the moment. Can they get better? Well that is on coaching and team leadership.
We do not have the answer. CZA probably doesn't have the answer. The team probably doesn't have the answer. RIGHT NOW.
But I will say this, every single player needs to get their heads out of their asses. The coaching staff needs to get their heads out of their asses.
If we sniff a hint of what happened last Saturday on the field this week, people need to be replaced on the field. I hope, every single coach took a step back this last Sunday and realized they have not done their jobs. Week 3, after all spring, all fall, the new OTAs, team meetings, film study, etc and they still can't line up and do damn simple things? That is 100% coaching or lack of teaching. Simple as that.
Will is not getting it done. He should have been pulled during the second quarter or last week's game. The OL that ran the complete wrong direction, on the second GD play of the game, should have been pulled to the sideline and his ASS handed to him. Arnett needs to get animated on the sideline. Take a page out of Saban's playbook. Tear some dudes a new Ahole.

We are running the JoMo playbook on scheme and the Croom/Woody playbook on coaching ability. Don't know what playbook on "D". Maybe JLD the last few years when we ran out of shut down corners and dominate DL that could pressure/sack the QB with no LB help.

How many rush yards did he have? For that matter how many rush yards did will lose (sacks) and how many pass yards did will have. You refuse to see the other part of the equation. That's why hardly anyone takes your points sincerely.

I wonder why Robinson isnt at UGA and why he has been a disappointment here.

You know this narrative about how mobile QBs can avoid sacks? The highest sack percentage in the SEC through the first three weeks? Jalen Milroe. Milroe, Rattler, and Jefferson have all been sacked at a higher rate than Will, who is 4th highest.
